Although Zhang Fei is not the kind of person who gets carried away easily, he is also not the kind of cautious and low-key person. When encountering a happy event, he should celebrate it. There is nothing to worry about.
Opposition requires revenge. Whether you celebrate or not, they will retaliate.
Today, he finally succeeded in taking revenge. He also sought justice for the Ear Pens of Bianjing Law Firm and vented his anger.
Of course, this had to be celebrated grandly, and he was indeed very happy. That night he, Cao Dongdong, Ma Xiaoyi, Feng Nanxi and others shouted and gave up when it was almost dawn.
He was also very tired these days and needed to indulge. Unfortunately, in the end it was Li Si who rushed to show his courtesy and helped him into the room, not Gao Wenyin, who didn't even give him a chance to have sex.
When he got up the next day, he criticized Li Si.
You are in charge of the saddle and the horse, and when it comes to sleeping, you can stay as far away as you want.
For Wang Hong, this was almost the most unforgettable night in his life.
He has always dreamed of moving from Kaifeng County Government to Kaifeng Mansion.
Now he finally got his wish, but there was a slight deviation. Although he did not live directly in the cell, there was an extra lock on his door.
[A book-chasing book recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, @
This little emperor is not that naive and can be manipulated, and the city is very deep, flexible and flexible, but the key point is that he is still small-minded. ,
These ministers were all experienced, but no one saw that Zhao Xu was very angry at that time.
This trick must be used with caution.
Wang Hong really fell directly from heaven to hell.
At this moment, he really regretted it, and he also realized why Kaifeng Mansion didn't slap Zhang Fei.
It still makes sense.
In comparison, Wei Yushan received more attention.
To put it bluntly, this incident actually started because of Wei Yushan, and Wang Hong dismissed it. But now the results of the two are completely different.
Wang Hong was directly assigned, without any discussion, and without even giving him a chance to appeal. It was not because he had offended Zhang Fei, but because he had offended the emperor. Would this be a good thing for him?
On the contrary, Wei Yushan's son ordered Zhao Xu to personally come forward to discuss political affairs with a group of officials to discuss how to convict him.
Chui Gong Hall.
"What do you think of Geng Mingyi's verdict handed over by the Kaifeng County Magistrate's Court?" Zhao Xu asked.
Zhao Pin took the lead and said: "Wei Yushan has a very close relationship with Prince Chang. If the sentence is lenient, I am afraid it will cause resentment among the people and I will not approve of it."
Like Bao Zheng, he was very wary of these royal relatives.
Don't let him grab you. If he grabs you, he won't let go.
Zhao Xu immediately nodded, expressing that he had no intention of protecting the emperor's relatives.
Sima Guang said, "I do support the Judicial Court's decision. Although it is only a fine, it is indeed a very light sentence, but the judgment also explains why it was so imposed.
This case is not an isolated case, but a common phenomenon. If the court imposes a heavy sentence, it will probably force the landowners to jump over the wall, thus causing even greater problems. "
Wang Anshi immediately said: "If the court wants to give a light sentence, it must conduct a comprehensive inventory of the land tax in Chi County, draw up a new cadastral book, and let them pay back the tax. Otherwise, there is no point in giving a light sentence."
Although he hates people like Wei Yushan very much, he has lofty ambitions. If Wei Yushan can increase the national finances and reduce the burden on the people, it is certainly worth it.
Since lenient sentencing is for the sake of the overall situation, we should start from the overall situation immediately.
But it cannot be said that there is a light sentence here and there is no action there. What is the meaning of a light sentence?
Wen Yanbo said very cautiously: "It's not just the landlords who evade taxes, the common people also have this situation. The common people also buy land, such as white deeds and red deeds. According to the law, if the deed tax is not paid for more than two months, they have to face comparisons." Landlords can afford heavy fines, but ordinary people cannot afford them. If it is cut off with a clean cut, it may cause new problems, so it is better to give the white deed legal effect."
….
Wang Anshi immediately retorted: "If this is the case, it will be equivalent to abolishing the red deed. This will only encourage land annexation. The court can order that the deed tax be paid within this year without any accountability, and the tax transfer will be completed by the way."
Of course Zhao Xu supports Wang Anshi. The national finance cannot make ends meet, and you are still here to reduce taxes. Why don't you talk about reducing salaries? He nodded and said: "I think what Wang Anshi said is more beneficial. If the deed tax is exempted, it will only encourage the development of land." For annexation, this matter will be left to the Kaifeng Prefecture."
Wang Anshi added: "Your Majesty, I think that the tax calculation power of Bianjing Law Firm can be restored. This will not only reduce some of the burden on the court, but also play a certain supervisory role."
The lawsuit was fought so beautifully, so he had to reciprocate and say a few words to Zhang Fei.
Zhao Xu nodded: "It's accurate."
Needless to say, Wang Anshi would also issue an order to open up tax calculations. This was a slap in the face, and he would definitely get back on his feet.
Wen Yanbo immediately said: "Your Majesty, from this point of view, the separation of politics and law by Bachelor Sima can also play a role in mutual supervision, and the court should pay attention to it."
Zhao Xu asked, "What do you think?"
Wen Yanbo said: "I think we can test it in Kaifeng County first, and this can also be used to restore the prestige of Kaifeng County."
Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Leave this matter to Sima
Bachelor. "
Sima Guang immediately said: "I obey your order."
Wang Hong will die even if he is not dead. We must let him die a worthy death!
After all, behind this lawsuit, there is still a dispute between the judiciary and the administration. Now that the lawsuit has been won, why not use this to promote judicial reform.
Take Kaifeng County first.
Zhao Xu also had this intention.
After the meeting, Wang Anshi grabbed Sima Guang and sang in his ear when he came out of the palace.
"Hide wealth from the people, hide wealth from the people, hide wealth from the people..."
"Wang Jiefu, that's enough!"
Sima Guang was so angry that his hair stood on end.
You can really avoid the first grade of junior high school, but you can't avoid the fifteenth grade.
Wang Anshi was very happy when he saw him anxious, and hehehe said: "Junshi! I suggest you that the first step in judicial reform is to define what is the people. Let me just say, what you said before is actually reasonable, but why do I I can't help but argue with you all the time. It turns out that the problem lies here. If we say we are the people, we are not the same people. From now on, you have defined it and I will never argue with you again."
"You're taking it out of context."
Sima Guang retorted: "When I say corvee is light and tax is low, but I only refer to landlords? Is this wrong? What I mean is that if the government plunders the wealth of the landlords, the landlords will inevitably plunder the wealth of the common people, and eventually they will be punished by the common people. On the body."
Wang Anshi looked disdainful, "This fact is right in front of us. After Wei Yushan climbed into the relationship with King Chang, he became more powerful, but he pushed further and did not stop when it was enough. Whether the country did anything, they would exploit the people. This wealth should be from State control."
Sima Guang smiled disdainfully: "Then let's wait and see."
After saying that, he would wave his sleeves and walk forward.
Wang Anshi looked at Sima Guang's angry back and couldn't help laughing.
The reason why he likes to compete with Sima Guang is because they are both perfect in terms of personal ethics. They are neither greedy for money nor lustful. They just have different ideas. If it were another corrupt official, Wang Anshi would not even bother to speak.
….
Winning against Sima Guang is very fulfilling.
Of course, the same is true for Sima Guang.
...
After all, this lawsuit has attracted great attention from the people. The court should either reduce the big issue to a small one and not give Wang Hong a heavy sentence. Since Wang Hong was sentenced hard, it means that the court is aware of this problem and must take action. Otherwise, it will not be enough. To complain about the common people.
In ancient times, public opinion was also valued.
The imperial court immediately announced an inventory of land taxes and updated the cadastre. At the same time, it required all white deeds to make up for the deed tax and complete tax delivery within this year. Otherwise, it will be deemed invalid and the land will be nationalized.
When it comes to returning the land to the people, the landowners may ignore it. This is nonsense, but when it comes to returning the land to the state, the big landowners all know that it is serious.
If this tax is not paid up, the land will really be lost, and the court will also be a hungry wolf!
Of course, the people cheered for this, and their resentment was greatly reduced. The only shortcoming was that the problem of the yamen servants was still not resolved.
But there is no way, new laws and regulations are still being formulated.
Wang Anshi also had to think carefully.
...
Baima Township.
"Brother Geng is back!"
"Da Lang is back!"
"Folks, come here quickly, Geng Dalang is back."
...
When Geng Ming returned to his hometown, villagers immediately poured in from all directions and surrounded him. Many people who had been kind to Geng Ming held Geng Ming's hands and burst into tears.
Geng Ming also burst into tears and couldn't help himself.
In fact, he has not left Kaifeng County, but his hometown seems to be thousands of miles away from him.
And in front of a farmhouse not far away, stood a pair of beautiful people, it was Xu Zhiqian and Zhang Fei.
"I hope the good people in this world will be rewarded."
When Xu Zhiqian saw this scene, Feng
Eyes filled with tears.
Zhang Fei glanced at her and said, "I hope so!"
In just over two hundred steps, Geng Ming walked for a meal.
When he saw Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian, he immediately ran over and clasped his fists to worship.
"The great kindness of these two benefactors will never be forgotten by Geng Ming. Please accept Geng Ming's thanks."
"No, no, no!"
Zhang Fei quickly helped Geng Ming and said with a smile: "Actually, I have to thank you. If you hadn't stood up bravely, it would be difficult for me to take revenge."
Xu Zhiqian next to him choked up and said, "Brother Geng, you don't need to thank anyone. Others should thank you."
Why Geng Ming went to investigate Wei Yushan in the first place was that he couldn't stand Wei Yushan's bullying of the villagers and wanted to seek justice. As Wei Yushan said, he did not target the Geng family, because in Wei Yushan's view, he and the Geng family were of the same class.
Therefore, Geng Ming owes nothing to anyone.
Zhang Fei handed some parts of the contract to Geng Ming, "This is the house deed and land deed that Wei Yushan returned to you. Not even an inch is missing."
When the lawsuit was filed that day, Wei Yushan actually didn't realize how serious the problem was. Until he saw Wang Hong's fate, he knew that he had saved his life from the gate of hell.
Now he just wants to save his life. This money is a trivial matter. Geng Ming's farmland is in Wei Yushan's hands and will be returned in full. However, Geng Ming sold the farm to others, but Wei Yushan immediately bought it back at a high price.
Geng Ming looked at the land deed in Zhang Fei's hand and stretched out his trembling hands, but when he reached halfway, he suddenly covered his face with his hands and burst into tears.
….
For villagers like them, their ancestral home is second only to their own lives.
Now that he had lost it and found it again, he couldn't believe it.
The onlookers also covered their faces and cried.
After a while, Geng Ming straightened up, excitedly took the land deed and house deed from Zhang Fei, and kept thanking him.
Zhang Fei said seriously: "Geng Ming, remember, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you must come to me as soon as possible. Don't be afraid of trouble. If you are afraid of trouble, it may become more trouble."
Geng Ming looked at Zhang Fei and nodded: "Thank you so much, my benefactor."
At this moment, a cry was heard from the distance, "Alang!"
Geng Ming suddenly turned his head and saw a woman leading a pair of children out of a bullock cart.
"Lady."
Geng Ming immediately ran over desperately.
"Alang!"
"Daddy!"
The family hugged each other tightly, holding their heads and crying.
Zhang Fei sighed: "I really envy Geng Ming."
Xu Zhiqian asked in surprise: "What do you envy them for?"
Zhang Fei sighed: "There is a lady who can hold me."
Xu Zhiqian was stunned for a moment, then glared: "What a disgrace to the scenery. Let's go, you disciple."
With that said, she took the initiative to hold his hand and walked towards the carriage.
Zhang Fei chuckled: "I'm not envious anymore. Perfect!"
Xu Zhiqian rolled her eyes at him shyly and asked, "Why did you say that to Geng Ming just now? Was it because you were afraid that someone would harm him?"
Zhang Fei nodded: "Although it is impossible for the time being, we have to take precautions. I don't want my victory to have any flaws."
Justice of the Northern Song Dynasty.
